A Face In Time…

Cometh the hour,

Cometh the man,

Speaketh through history,

Time has a plan,

Tick tock, tick tock,

We're cogs in the machine,

Time to take stock?

Face of a soulless requiem,

Ghostly vision,

Nightmare prison,

Hands pristine,

A callus dream?

Life,

Bitter as it seems,

Cold as I breathe,

I whisper, I am mine,

We're but a face in time,

Tick tock, tick tock,

Time will tell,

A masquerading clock,

Time will tell,

We're but a face in time...
